Lily tugged on Ashton's hand, practically dragging him through the main entrance of Disneyland Paris. The other boys hang back with Liz, laughing at how excited the small girl seemed to be. Ash just looked down at her with a lazy grin and gentle eyes. He'd never seen her quite so ecstatic.

"Come on, Ash," Lily groaned, trying once more to tug on the much older, much stronger, blond, though failing as Ashton held his ground, wanting to wait for the others. "I don't wanna miss out on anything!"

Ashton smirked at her as she turned back to face him, pouting up at him through her lashes. Damn, he though. "You aren't going to miss out, baby. We have the entire day to check out the park."

"Yeah, but," she whined, jutting her bottom lip out even more as she stood before him, her shoulders slumped slightly like she wanted to throw a tantrum. "There's so much to see and do, Ashy, I don't wanna miss any of it!"

Ashton giggled, wrapping both of his arms around her shoulders and pulling her to his chest. All four of the boys had placed caps on their head, Ashton's being a simple black cap with nothing on it, though it was used solely to disguise the boys as much as they could. Ashton would hate it if he ruined Lily's day with an ambush of fans at the happiest place on earth. Besides, this was her day, and he wanted to do everything in his power to keep it that way.

"Where to first?" Luke shouted as the rest of the boys and Liz finally caught up to where Ashton had managed to tame Lily.

Mike gestured to the pair suggestively, "Got her under control there, mate?" He joked. Ashton giggled once more as the little girl clung onto him for what felt like dear life.

"I don't know," Ash says, looking toward the boys as he nods his head in Calum's direction. "He's got the map."

"Can we get ears?" Lily shouts with wide eyes, shrugging herself out of Ashton's embrace and jumping up and down like an excited child. "Please?"

"Sure," Cal shrugs as he opens the map, examining it closely. "It says here that the closest place to get ears and hats is . . . Disney and Co or the Emporium, both on Main Street USA."

Lily shrugs, seemingly not sure which shop would be the best option. "I don't mind," she says sweetly. "I just need ears!"

"Need, huh?" Ash smirks, winking at her.

Lily nods her head yes quite urgently, and it amuses Ashton that she's so capable of turning into a small child so quickly. As if she's always been this innocent little girl.

The group make their way to Disney and Co, right at the end of Main Street, and Lily can hardly contain her excitement as she see's the castle. Her eyes light up at her surroundings, November in Disneyland seeming to take her breath away with its magical Christmas decorations and snow filled windows, it's hidden Mickey's in the street and of couse, the famous pink castle.

"Ash! Look!" She squeals, grabbing a fist full of his black coat and yanking on it. "It's the castle! It's the castle! Oh my god!"

"C'mon, baby," Ashton smiles, wrapping an arm around her shoulder and pulling her into the store. "We need to get you ears before we can see the castle."

Her eyes go wide and her mouth practically falls to the floor.

"Holy fuck nuggets," Michael says, his face mirroring Lily's as he stares at the magically decorated store full to the brim of all things Disney.

"That's a lot of Disney," Calum adds in, standing right next to Mike.

"Hundred percent," Luke says, his face stoic. "Should have gone to the Eiffel Tower."
